O2 & Freshwave Boost Perth's Mobile Coverage With Six New 4G Small Cells
T-Mobile and Freshwave have bolstered mobile coverage in Perth city centre, Scotland, by installing six new 4G outdoor small cells. The project, delivered under an open access agreement, benefits both local authorities and mobile network operators.
The small cells, compact enough to fit in a shoe box, are mounted on existing infrastructure like lamp posts. This approach preserves the city's aesthetic while enhancing connectivity.
The open access model allows Perth and Kinross Council to maintain control of their street assets. It enables collaboration with various mobile network operators and neutral hosts, fostering a multi-operator environment. This project is a testament to that, with T-Mobile and Freshwave working together to improve coverage.
The new small cells have significantly improved outdoor mobile signals for T-Mobile's customers in crucial public areas. Commuters can now enjoy better connectivity outside Perth Railway Station, and shoppers along the high street can stay connected while browsing.
The successful deployment of these small cells demonstrates the benefits of open access models in improving mobile coverage. It allows local authorities to leverage their assets while mobile network operators expand their services. This collaboration between T-Mobile, Freshwave, and Perth and Kinross Council has resulted in enhanced connectivity for Perth city centre.
